Looking to add powerful and flexible map features to your ExpressionEngine site? Whether you’re showcasing store locations, creating custom routes, or simply adding interactive maps to your entries — the Reinos Maps module suite has you covered.
Let’s take a closer look at what’s possible and how these tools can elevate your site.
The Core: Reinos Maps Module
At the heart of it all lies the Reinos Maps module — a powerful foundation for integrating maps into your ExpressionEngine website. This core module gives you full control over map rendering, marker placement, map styles, and more. It connects seamlessly with the Google Maps API (or alternatives), and provides a flexible template system that lets developers and content editors alike work with ease.
With the Maps module, you can:
- Add fully customized maps to your templates
- Use dynamic data to populate maps with markers
- Configure zoom, center, clustering, and advanced settings
- Connect easily with other modules in the suite
This core module is all you need to start building — and when you’re ready to do more, the following fieldtypes and add-ons extend its functionality even further.
Add a Map to Any Entry: Maps Fieldtype
The Maps Fieldtype allows you to include an interactive map directly in your entry publish form. Editors can drag and drop markers, zoom in and out, and visually place locations without needing to know latitude or longitude.
Use case examples:
- Blog entries with location-based stories
- Event pages with a pin on the map
- Directory listings that show where a business is located
Once saved, the field data can be used dynamically within your templates.
Create and Display Custom Routes: Maps Route
Need to display a custom route between multiple points? The Maps Route extension is what you’re looking for.
Perfect for:
- Travel blogs
- Logistics or delivery services
- Multi-stop directions for events or tours
This add-on builds on the Maps core and makes route plotting incredibly intuitive. Routes can be rendered in real-time, with options for styling, animations, and waypoint customization.
Store Locator Functionality Made Easy: Maps Locator
Want to add a Store Locator to your site? With the Maps Locator extension, users can search for nearby stores based on their location or a custom input (like postal code or city). It’s ideal for businesses with multiple physical locations.
Features include:
- Radius-based search
- Distance calculation
- Customizable output and filtering options
- Easy integration with existing channel entries
